When Lu Xian was tired of fighting, she returned to the room to rest. Yu Xiang curled up on the ground and no one came forward to ask her about her situation.
At this moment, Yu Xiang suddenly felt that she had suffered enough here. Why did she have to endure such suffering? She had thought she could have enough food and clothing, but she didn't expect to be abused like this.
No, if I continue to stay here, I will definitely die. In an instant, Yu Xiang realized that sooner or later I will be beaten to death if I stay here with Lu Xian.
It would be better to run away by yourself. Once you leave here, you won’t have to be afraid anymore. Thinking of this, Yu Xiang made up her mind to leave this cruel palace.
Yu Xiang slowly got up from the ground. It seemed that she just wanted to go back to her own residence, but in fact, her two big eyes were looking around.
Limping along, Yu Xiang was about to leave Lu Xian's palace. She felt a little happy that she was finally leaving.
However, the smile only appeared on her face for a second, and the next second, she saw several guards appear in front of her.
It's over, all over.
At this time, Yu Xiang had no other thoughts in her mind. Several guards brought Yu Xiang to Lu Xian and told her that she wanted to escape.
Lu Xian stared straight at Yu Xiang who was lying on the ground. Yu Xiang was so scared that her body couldn't help but tremble, and she didn't dare to look at Lu Xian at all.
"You want to escape? What? Wei Gong treats you badly?" Lu Xian was originally in a better mood after beating Yu Xiang, but Yu Xiang wanted to escape again, and her mood instantly became terrible again.
Damn it, she’s just a palace maid. It’s her honor to be my punching bag, but she actually dared to run away.
"Damned slave, he angered his master and tried to escape. He's simply despicable. Come, drag him away and beat him to death." Lu Xian ordered with narrowed eyes.
What, caning to death? When Liuxiang came in and heard this, her legs felt a little out of control. Ever since she knew that Lu Xian had abused Yuxiang, she had become more cautious about Yuxiang's affairs.
Just now, when she was doing something, she heard people talking about how Yu Xiang had provoked Lu Da Ying and wanted to escape, but was caught.
Liuxiang knew that things were definitely not as everyone said, so she put down what she was doing and wanted to come over to take a look. As a result, as soon as she came over, she heard Lu Xian say that she would be beaten to death.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you can't do that. Please spare Yuxiang's life!" Liuxiang immediately threw herself at Lu Xian's feet, hugging her legs and crying.
Liuxiang didn't know what was going on and why Lu agreed to beat Yuxiang to death, but she knew that she had to plead for Yuxiang.
When the trembling Yuxiang heard that she was going to be beaten to death, she was already disheartened. Unexpectedly, the next second, she heard Liuxiang's plea for mercy.
Lifting her head with great effort, Yu Xiang looked at Liu Xiang who was kowtowing to Lu Xian with tears in her eyes, and forced a smile at the corner of her mouth.
Everyone told her that there was no such thing as sisterhood in the harem, that everyone was deceitful and that she should never trust others easily. However, Liuxiang was different, she treated herself really well.
Liuxiang didn't notice Yuxiang's little movements, and just kowtowed to Lu Xian and begged for mercy. After a while, her head started bleeding.
Lu Xian frowned. She had not expected that when she was only about to beat a palace maid to death, someone would beg for her so desperately.
This person is so affectionate and loyal. If I still want to beat Yu Xiang to death, it would seem that I am not very reasonable.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Xian sighed and said, "Seeing how deeply you love and cherish your loyalty, I'll punish you with forty strokes of the cane instead of death."
Although she was not beaten to death, Yu Xiang was still dying after being beaten with forty sticks. Her body had long been tortured by Lu Xian.
"Oh, you know, Lu promised to punish a palace maid, and beat her so badly!" A palace maid passed by the Imperial Hospital and said to the people around her.
"Yeah, I don't know how I offended Lu to agree to it, alas." Another person sighed, as if sighing for the helplessness in the palace.
"I heard that the palace maid is pretty good-looking. Could it be because of this? Her name is nice too, something like Yuxiang." The two people's voices gradually faded away, but the name fell into Xu Chen'an's ears.
They asked, "What was the name of the person who got beaten? Yu Xiang?"
Xu Chen'an immediately came to Yu Xiang. He originally had a glimmer of hope, thinking that it was just someone with the same name and might not be Yu Xiang. However, when he saw Yu Xiang, this glimmer of hope instantly disappeared.
Yu Xiang was lying on the bed. Seeing Xu Chen'an coming, she was very surprised: "Why are you here?"
Xu Chen'an felt a little sad. He didn't expect Yu Xiang to become like this. He had come into contact with so many patients, but now he didn't dare to look at Yu Xiang's injuries.
"What happened?" Xu Chen'an didn't dare to look at the injuries on Yu Xiang's body anymore, so he turned his head to look at Yu Xiang's face.
Yu Xiang was already content that she was still alive, so how could she let Xu Chen'an know the whole story?
Hearing Xu Chen'an asking her, Yu Xiang just shook her head and told him not to ask too much. After all, Xu Chen'an was just an imperial physician. What could he do to Lu Xian if he knew about this?
"Don't come to see me anymore." Yu Xiang suddenly said this. This was also because Yu Xiang was afraid that she would be a burden to Xu Chen'an.
In Su Mengyan's palace, Xu Chen'an was taking her pulse. Ever since Su Mengyan became pregnant, Xu Chen'an would come to check her pulse every once in a while.
But this time, when Xu Chen'an took Ping's pulse, he was obviously absent-minded. Su Mengyan noticed his absent-mindedness and asked, "What's wrong with you? Take my pulse. What are you thinking about?"
These words brought Xu Chen'an's thoughts back to his past. Ever since he saw Yu Xiang that day, Xu Chen'an would think of Yu Xiang's appearance from time to time.
Suddenly, Xu Chen'an looked at Su Mengyan. How could he forget that the person in front of him was the Queen Mother? What could he not tell her?
Thinking of this, Xu Chen'an said, "Do you still remember the little palace maid I told you about before?"
Little palace maid? Yu Xiang? Su Mengyan thought about it, nodded, and said she remembered.
Just remember it, Xu Chen'an thought, so he told Su Mengyan about Yu Xiang being beaten. Finally, Xu Chen'an said, "Can you get her from Lu Yingde? Just let her go to the Imperial Hospital."
After hearing what Xu Chen'an said, Su Mengyan felt a little surprised. She had clearly instructed Bixia to arrange for Yu Xiang to be sent to the Imperial Hospital, so how could she have gone to Lu Xian's place?
Bixia was summoned to inquire about this matter. Bixia said, "My Lady, I made the same arrangement that day, but later someone told me that Miss Yuxiang had been promised to Lu. I wanted to tell you, but I forgot. I deserve to die."
